Description:
Consists of the following 12 stories: The Manor House Villain;
Plainest of the Three; Leonora's Last Term; Bubble and
Squeak; Against Desperate Odds; Lost in the Dark;
The Silent Witness; Tess Takes a Chance; The Spy That
Wasn't; The Last Treasure of Farlingford Hall; The Unlucky
Black Cat; The Funk [dated term for a coward].

Each one is illustrated with one b&w drawing (skilfully coloured-in by
the previous owner). Contains a beautiful colour plate by Philip Simmonds,
depicting a camping scene.

Glazed pictorial boards with strongly faded orange cloth spine. Minor
wear to front and rear covers; spine and corners are bumped (with some
foxing to the former). There are also dents to the cover edges. Pages are
printed on thick cartridge paper, and are lightly tanned around their
edges, but completely free from foxing. Binding is sound.
